I recently evaluated the Bakery Single Sign-On System aka Bakery SSO aka Bakery on behalf of clients. This article describes how I moved from finding a small weakness in version 2.x-alpha-3 to an exploit.
If you haven't updated all your sites to Bakery 2.0-alpha4 (6.x, 7.x), go and do so now.

SA-CORE-2012-003 fixes an issue in the Drupal installer that enables an attacker to cause the site to use a different attacker-controlled database.
The installer vulnerability was found while preparing my DrupalJam presentation (NL) on security audits and reported via the (awesome!) SecuriTeam Secure Disclosure program. As promised on IRC & Reddit, here's some additional information on the root cause(s).
Gain administrator privileges via an XSS vulnerability in Recipe

For those with the tendency to downplay cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities, a small videocast on how a vulnerability in the contributed module Recipe can get an attacker administrator access to a Drupal site. The vulnerability was fixed with DRUPAL-SA-2006-014 a long time ago, so I feel it's safe to publish the video now.
ยป Videocast.
